France Lyrics
The ideal girl
In London from france
Came over and left me
She left me entranced
Now I have to get by
Once again on my own
Nothing but memories
So I remember your eyes
That unique shade of brown
While these blue eyes of mine
They stay closed
I kissed you goodbye on the M-109
I choked as I watched the bus go, oh-oh
Choking and smoking to your angelic soul
Choking and smoking myself into a hole
Where the only way out is to sleep and to dream
And to cry out your na-a-ame
In London from france
Came over and left me
She left me entranced
Now I have to get by
Once again on my own
Nothing but memories
That unique shade of brown
While these blue eyes of mine
They stay closed
I kissed you goodbye on the M-109
I choked as I watched the bus go, oh-oh
Choking and smoking myself into a hole
Where the only way out is to sleep and to dream
And to cry out your na-a-ame

its 'that unique shade of brown' not that fine shade of brown' beutiful song made me cry lol!
This song almost made me smash the screen when i first heard it. Luckily it grew on me. It's Carl singing about an old girlfriend... "choking and smoking myself into a hole" particularly got me.
I love this song, it's the hidden one their 'The Libertines' album. It's so sweet and sad. Poor Carl!
Yeah and his voice is pure sexy. You need a few slow meaningful acoustics stuck in here and there from your favourite band!
This is one of the best songs on the album! A perfect note to end the album on. Shame they broke up :-s
What a song!!! Carl at his brilliant best
the song is so sweet and painful i just love carl's voice in this song
I love the Legs XI demo of this song the most, with Carl lighting up a fag and the random Pete intro/Carl outbursts.
Laaaaaaaadiesss and Geeeeeentlemeeen, Carlos Barat with his self penned contemporary ballad classic.......

This song is lucid, no explanation is necessary.
